Damn shame is right =/ I'm going to rebuild the heads and leave it aside for a spare I guess. Don't jynx me on the COTM lol, I've wanted it since I became a member and saw the featured cotm. Does look like a landslide win though.

^^^ I was just gonna say...LoL. Car meet after the car meet. Some one should have started BBQ'in.
Nice you had you bro's with you.
Cool to see u opted to go with the 6G74 motor, should definitely be a nice upgrade ;)
Congrats on winning COTM!!
Congrats keith. Bring it down to mod. You should be a stand out!
Congrats on cotm
Thanks for the congrats guys!
I just got coilovers delivered today so I had to put them on =)
I'll post some pics I took tomorrow sometime (or later today). It feels more like the gsx/gst now, its awesome. I tested it out on the biggest holes in the road going extremely slow to make sure my bumper makes it to the highway in the morning. I cleared the deepest hole by about 1.5in.
Hopefully I won't be posting any broken fiberglass, KNOCK ON WOOD.
When your on coilovers you never hit a big pot hole! i never did and hope i never will!

needs moar low lol
looks alot better tho, keep up the good work!!!
Son you need moar low. I was lower than that on springs haha
I don't think you guys understand my 3rd world country roads.
I rolled into a pot hole on my road and got out to see how far away my bumper was from the ground. ~ an inch til my fiberglass bumper breaks.
This is the lowest I'm willing to go, I inflated the tires a little up front and hardened the ride to keep from losing my bumper.
That's a modest drop, and that's all I want, to even the disparity between the front and rear wheel gaps. Looking good Keith!!

Hmm. I'll let you live...however I do doubt the badness of yo roads.
Lolol! I will get proof.
Thanks man! All I really wanted to do was level out the cars wheels gaps. Mission accomplished lol, I'm still scared I'm going to break something on every bump on the highway and every pot hole in my road. =/
I feel ya, just be careful on the road, you'll be alright. Car looks better each time I see it, get that maroon joint ip and rolling as the daily, you'll be good to go!

Looks good...at least lower it a little more before MOD man
Yeah two finger gap is best of both worlds but you still have to dodge some inclines and take everything sideways for precaution(no homo).
Also you should run a slightly taller tire 225 45 18 look sick! i cant remember what member here was running them but i liked them a lot.
One of my favorites on here. Kill the wheel gap a bit more and it's perfect.
No turbo, no care. Jk
Have you ever thought of a clear bra? Just to help keep rock chips and bug splatter down. It would be a shame if the paint keeps getting messed up and you redoing your work every summer or something.
no roads are worse than NYC, and i daily drove slammed with a dolphin front (had about 1.5" clearance) and never hit a pothole :)
Anyone been to Baltimore? Roads are complete ass. DC too. I've been to NY, they are trash too. With them potholes, you gotta know your route and dodge them shits like the Matrix lol.
Kieth car looks awesome definetly TGC top ten. I would go a tad bit lower in front, between half inch to inch. If not raise rear that much to offset the look.
Thanks man, if you were to look at the car; the front end and rear end are almost exactly spaces the same as far as wheel gap. The rear is about stock gap where the front matches it.
I'll get some hd pics and post this weekend sometime. Maybe take her up in the mountain in an empty lot or something, hopefully get a second opinion from you guys when I show you how low the front bumper actually is.
Careful on your way up there. Be sure to wear your lucky underwear LoL.
Keith, get the car corner balanced once you determine the final height.
Like, adjusting the camber? idk what you mean
The heights of each corner are altered to provide optimal weight distribution through each corner of the car.

Here is some more info on corner balancing for you;

Thanks for the info! I posted there.
